I bought this partially as a joke for my husband who is anti-modern technology. He loves this. It made him laugh. He took it to work with him and he's got some funny looks when people see him talking on it. It has a good, clear sound and works really well.

I use this when I do my bank statement. Or need to do something else and I need both of my hands to be free. Two things 1= I wish the hand set would ring when it is plug into your cell phone. 2= And you can not answer your phone call with the hand set either. *BUT!* You can hang up on someone with the hand set.

This was the second phone handset I purchased. The first one that I purchased from another company did not work well. I was always being told that I could not be heard. This one is truly amazing; the clarity on the line cannot be compared to my previous phone hand set. I love that I can use my phone and keep the world out of my conversation.

I like to be able to put my cell in my pocket and use the handset, voice quality is much better and don't have to cram a cell phone in your ear to speak or hear. Not sure this device would work on all cell phones or smart phones, but works well on my LG feature phone.

I cant stand long talks on a cell phone, oh and when your put on hold it drives me crazy. this is great.and for fun I carry it in my purse, when it ring I only take out the receiver you should see the looks I get. lol (laugh out loud)

I purchased this hand held phone headset for a friend that is hard of hearing and has just recently gotten hearing aids. She has found this handset to be a great help in avoiding hitting call ending touches on her smart phone. It has done what I had hoped that it would do for my friend.

I bought this for me and my two daughters. We all love it, with radiation from cell phones, I thought this would make a big difference. I'm now going to buy another one for a friends birthday. I get a lot of comments about my retro phone piece.

I use this product to improve the voice quality of my cell phone and can use it as a corded phone while still portable, just place the cell in my pocket and use the handset like a conventional phone, don't have to cram the cell into my ear to hear properly. Don't know if this unit will work for every cell phone or smart phone, but works well for my LG feature phone.

I purchaced this little thing so my mom could use my Cell Phone better for she is hard of hearing and has problems understanding the phone,,,, thought this would be a bit better for her,,, I love it workes great

I bought this as a gift request for my 13 year old. I find myself using it more than him. Going to buy a second one for myself. Great for all ages, stays plugged in to phone and I don't hang up on anybody anymore. Great for seniors who find it hard using modern technology.

I am not a fan of the tiny little phones we are forced to choose from when buying cell phones and my job requires me to be on a computer all day. So when I leave work, I do not want to look at an even smaller computer screen.

I have a cell phone for talking on (not to text or browse the web) and to hold that tiny little thing for any amount of time is just uncomfortable.

This product is exactly what I needed. I can hear clearly and adjust the volume as needed and no one I have spoken to has mentioned any problems hearing me talk.

If you have spent time to read all these comments you should go ahead and try it. You will not be disappointed.

I have arthritis in my hands. This actually turns the cell into an easy to hold handset like the older landline phones. I love it plus you can answer the phone from the handset and make it louder or lower. Great invention.I wish the cord was a bit longer but it's fine.

I do not like my so-called "Smartphone," but I'm stuck with it. I especially do not like the way I have to hold it to my ear to make a phone call. This retro headset is just great. It makes it much easier to speak with someone and have a hand free to do something else, like write something down. Mind you, I only use it at home, but I am very satisfied. Unfortunately, my cats find it fun to play with!

I bought this, thinking it probably would not work. But it truly works perfectly. My husband and I are seniors, and we use it every time the cell phone rings. Thank you PS I took a picture of it and sent it to some friends around the country who were surprised that such and "thing" was made, but then I told them how good ours worked.

I ordered two black handsets,one for my husband and one for myself. They are everything I hoped they would be. Clear and so much easier to hold when having a long conversation. I am very pleased with purchase. I can't say anything negative about handset.

This product makes using my cell phone so much easier and when I'm in a long conversation my hand doesn't get tired holding my flip cell phone. I could imagine this would be good for someone to use if they have arthritis, just gives your hand something easier to hold onto vs a slim phone.

PLEASE ALL OF YOU CONSIDERING BUYING THE RETRO PHONE PLEASE DO YOURSELVES A FAVOR... DO YOUR HOMEWORK.MY PHONE AND TABLET, HAVE THAT PERTINENT INFORMATIONABOUT THE SIZE OF YOUR HEADPHONE JACK .SOME EVEN HAVE EARPHONES IN THE BOX THEY COME.

IN FROM OF MY EYES " MY SAMSUNG GALAXY S5 (SPORT PHONE-FOR THE CAMERA) AND THE EARPHONES THAT CAME IN THE BOX AS ALL SAMSUNG PRODUCTS, EVEN THE EARPHONES HAVE THE NAME IMPRINTED ON THEMMY SAMSUNG GALAXY TaB 3 CAME WITH THE SAME EARPHONES. YES THEY ARE 3.5mm.

I have trouble hearing and being heard on my cell phone. This eliminates the problem! Although two of my friends have said that I sound like I'm talking from the bottom of a bucket, the rest said that they heard me quite clearly. I bought the ugly purple one because it was cheaper than the other colors and since it doesn't sit out where people can see it, the color didn't really matter so I went for cheap!

I really like this handset! It is fun to use, and is clear on my end and the listener's end. I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and the handset works fine with it. I may need a larger purse to make it fit inside though, but other than that it is neat. I love anything retro, and I especially like the fact that I now don't need my phone at my ear. That is so unsafe. (Ex. I quit carrying it in my pocket because it caused hip pain.)I have already shared a photo of my handset on Facebook and hope others will try one for themselves. It is a nice alternative to a cell phone at your ear. I wish the red light would come on when someone is calling in. That's the only con I see with this handset. Hopefully the company will make that a working feature in the future.

The receiver is ideal to use, esp. if you're going to be on your cell phone for any length of time. The receiver is so much more comfortable and easier to hold to your ear than a cell phone. Also, I feel safer having the receiver next to my head than the phone itself.

Mom has a cell phone but she would cut me off when pressing it to her ear to hear me. Hope this will take care of the problem. Christmas gift but I will recommend because it is an unusual item for an unusual problem and priced right.

at first everyone told me that it sounded like i was in a tunnel. so i took the head set apart. drill the plastic plugs out to get to the screws. and i drilled out the single pinhole in the microphone end. drill it out to the size of the microphone under the plastic, about 3/8 hole. after that everyone said it sounded fine.

i tried to send it back for a refund, but i was over the limit. so it sat in my garage for months. then i decided to modify it. the company should fix the problem ...... it had a lot of reviews on this problem.

When I go for walks, I can put my cell in my little shoulder bag, tuck the phone under my ear like I did many years ago as a teenager, and talk those miles away in a hurry. Good sound, convenient, and just plain fun. Therefore, this is FUNctional, and it's a good price on this site.

I did read that someone had a bad experience with this, so I took a chance. Miles Kimball should just remove this item from their catalog. I must say that custormer service was WONDERFUL. I paid by PayPal, and was refunded within days. I cut the cord off and gave it to my daughter to take to the kids at the daycare center she works in. Cheaply made. Still looking for something to keep the cell phone away from my head. Some day we will find out that people are getting brain cancer from the electromagnetic waves.

I bought myself one and a friend one because we live in areas where mobile service is limited. We both have to leave the mobile phone in the window to get a signal. I though this would make it easier to talk, but with the cord being wound so tight it doesn't stretch enough to get more then a foot from the phone and I can do that with speaker phone. For me...this product is useless.

It seems very light weight but after I use the buttons on inside of handle It was ok It would be good for one that has trouble holding a heavy phone like the one I saw at 99 cent store for 2.99Some people can not hold a heavy pnone because of their fingers so I would recommend

I am not sure what kind of phone you have to have to use this but our simple tracfones does not have a place where you can plug in this phone but I loved the idea of having it when I am using my cellphone since I don't like putting it to my ear...maybe it only works on the smartphones

Excellent Idea and no complaints on reception but I didn't realize that the cord is too short for walking around while talking on your cell phone. Unfortunately the cell phone just dangles and the cord is just shy of allowing me to comfortably put my cell in my pocket while walking around. IF you plan to sit in one place and talk on your cell, by all means I see no reason NOT to buy it. I just wish they would have given more thought and added a few inches to the cord and it could serve both purposes.

I tried the headset out by calling my son who was across town. He could not hear me and when he talked, there was a lot of static. When I called my husband who was in anothet room at home, it was a clear reception.

This looked like the perfect solution for me. My hand cramps when holding the cell phone after a while. When I use a regular corded phone however, I cradle the handset on my shoulder while talking. That way I can type or take notes etc... When I attempted to "cradle" this phone, it would NOT stay put - it slipped right off my shoulder. The plastic this is composed of is just very smooth and slippery, plus it is very lightweight. Typical handsets are heavier and stay "cradled" more easily.

If you are simply going to hold the handset and talk - this would work for you just fine I think. Might want to verify it will work with your phone, however...

Very disappointing. I had hoped to use this as an aid for my elderly mother, but it does not work. I have tried several ways to use it, and also to modify my phone, but it does not work. My phone is just an Apple iPhone, so it is nothing fancy---will be returning it.

I thought it would be great to use for my conference calls, but it didn't work like I thought it would. Disappointed but that was the risk I took when I bought it. Sorry Miles Kimball, this was a disappointing purchase.

This phone would only work one way, I could hear the person talking but they could not hear me. Wish I would have read the reviews before I wasted my time and money on this product. Looking at the reviews, and the majority are bad, why do you keep selling this product?

Thought this would be good when I'm speaking on my cell phone, because I don't get a good signal in my home and I get tired of holding the phone up to my ear. The design on this is nice, got the purple, love the color. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and this would not work with it. Nothing. Nada. So now I have to go to the trouble of returning it. Not a happy camper. :(

I was very disappointed with this item! The headset is very lightweight and delicate however; the cord was stiff and tangled plus the adapter would not stay connected to my iPhone; it kept popping out. I will be returning this.

I bought this so that I could use my touch phone when making phone calls. It worked fine, for all of 5 mins. When I tried to adjust the volume on it, the button wen INSIDE the handset and I couldn't get it back out. There is no way of opening the item to be able to correct it. So, I now have a USELESS piece of junk sitting here, as it's not worth the hassle of sending it back.

The Retro Phone handset was purchased for my dad who has difficulty hearing on the cell phone. The product has a volume control which I thought would be helpful. Unfortunately, the volume while connected to the cell phone was lower than listening to the cell phone alone. It was returned.

My friend is ALWAYS hanging up on me wit her chin cuz she tries 2 lean her cell phone on her shoulder while chatting & walking! This "old fashioned" handset will fix the prob without a doubt! Can't WAIT 2 get it.....but REALLY can't wait 2 give it 2 her! Thnx so much 4 the uniqueness of it.

To reduce radiation from cell phones. Bought one for my Mom because she has a pacemaker and I think that being on a cell phone all day may harm her. Hoe this works, she has a Samsung 7 and I have a iPhone 6 Plus.<br />Thanks

BEST ANSWER:It will work with any cell phone...it's cord plugs in to the same hole that any headphones would plug into.It's comfortable to use but I cannot hear any better that on my cell phone (I was hoping the volume control would amplify it louder than my cell, but it doesn't)
